Bollywood's beloved father-son duo, David Dhawan and Varun Dhawan, are set to deliver another dose of full-blown entertainment with their newly announced romantic comedy Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai. The film, officially scheduled for release on April 10, 2026, promises to bring back the signature chaos, color, and comedy that made David Dhawan a household name.
Varun Dhawan took to his social media account and shared this news with his fans. He wrote, "Double the trouble, triple the fun! Jab...'Hai Jawani toh Ishq Hona Hai' hits cinemas on 10th April 2026"
Produced by Tips Films and helmed by the king of masala entertainers himself, David Dhawan, this upcoming rom-com features an impressive ensemble cast. Alongside Varun Dhawan, the film stars Pooja Hegde, Mrunal Thakur, Mouni Roy, and seasoned comedians like Maniesh Paul, Ali Asgar, Rakesh Bedi, and Chunkey Panday — ensuring laughs from start to finish.
The title itself, Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai, sets the tone for what’s to come: a youthful celebration of love, mischief, and all the madness in between. The film revolves around a quirky love triangle filled with misunderstandings, unexpected twists, and classic David Dhawan-style punchlines. Set against a lively, beachy backdrop — hinted at in the film’s first poster featuring coconut trees and a bright blue sky — the film oozes vacation vibes with Bollywood-style romance and rhythm.
With Varun currently juggling multiple projects, including Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari, and Border 2, this film gives fans something different — a lighthearted escape wrapped in nostalgia. This marks Varun’s fourth collaboration with his father, after successful hits like Main Tera Hero, Judwaa 2, and Coolie No. 1. Their on-screen synergy has always delivered laughter, and fans are expecting no less this time.
What truly sets this film apart is David Dhawan’s return to form. Known for his legendary comic timing and ability to blend music, romance, and madness into a blockbuster formula, David appears ready to reintroduce the classic Bollywood comedy experience to a new generation.
As the countdown to April 2026 begins, fans can expect a film filled with laughter, love, and everything larger than life. Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai looks set to be the perfect mix of nostalgia, chaos, and fresh energy — the kind of movie that makes you laugh out loud and hum its songs long after the credits roll.
